The butter market has passed through an
other week OF steady prices. Up To Tuesday
the demand was FULLY equal to the supply, and
receipts cleaned up every day. Many dealers
found il difficult to get enough fine stock to

slight stlffening OF rates was the result. Best

SEVEN PER CENT
INVESTMENTS.

We are constantly receiving from our West
ern Office ! per cent Mortgages on Improved
Real Estate, and have always in stock from
$4,000 to s5OO00 of completed loans in various
amounts from 5000 to $4,000.
These mortgages are especially desirable
tor Eastern investors, because the property by
which they are secured is always inspected by
IA member OF this firm, as well rs by salaried
examiners; because the property lies in the
old counties of northwestern Missouri, eastern
Kansas and eastern Nebraska, where prices
are not affected by the unhealthy "booms"
which initiate values in the new country far
Their West; and because the soil in the counties
where these loans are negotiated has been
tested by many years OF successful cultiVa-
ton.
Principal and interest are paid by check
from this office, promptly AT maturity.

THE swT.ANTATE ComME1 A.r.

The Elko Independent is as happy as T"
clam is said to be at high water. 1t ha>
commended ever since the Interstate Com
nerce Act went into effect that the raul
roads, not the people, were benefited by
its provisions, and it is now thorough,
convinced that it was right because the
railroads have deci led to ignore the
long and short haul clause OF the act
uutil the authorities decide that it is nn-
lawful for them TO do so.
To substantiate it's assertion that the
railroads were benefited by the act. the
independent states that rates we're in
creased as soon as the law went into OPP
eration. bat it overlooks the fact that
Che roads could have raised the rates he.
fore as we'll as after the act went into OPP
Grafton had they been so disposed.
O % Object of the law was to prevent
unfair discrimination against non-com-
petitive points by prohibiting roads from
charging more for q short than for long
haul over the same line, and if the Inter
state Commerce Conmiss on and the
courts decide that IT does not accomplish
this object, it will be the dnty of Con-
gress, when it convenes next Winter, to
make whatever amendments may be nee
essary give the long and short hau clause
force and effect. The fact that Judge
Deadly, of the United States District
Court of Oregon, ins,ructs the receiver
Of an Oregon road to ignore the long and
short haul clause OF the act in making
rates is by no means conclusive that it is
legal TO do so. as the opinions of a Judge
who rules, rs Deadly virtually did, that
the credibilisy of witness should be de-
tsrmined by the weight of his purse, are
not infallible.

The other day young man in the sub
urbs of Paris saved the life of a young
woman who was trying to drown herself.
When a reward was offered to him for
his brave act he refused it, saying that
he loved the young woman whose life he
had saved and wished her hand as his re-.
ward. The young woman refused him,
however, because she was in love with
another young man, whose failnre to re-.
turn her love had made her determine to
take herlife. At last accounts the young
woman was still set upon killing herself,
and her preserver was thinking of follow
ing her example because she would not
love him.

LIBERAL VICTORIES.


Gladstone is making the Tories vince

held within @ week to fill vacancies in
the House of Commons, the Liberals
were successful in two and materially re-.
aaced the majority in the other, though
all had hitherto been strongly ConserVa-

should be dissolved to-day the Liberals
would have larger majority in the next
Mouse than they have ever had. 1t is
admitted by the Tory organs that their
leaders are making inexcusable blunders,
and that the present coalition between
them and the Liberal Unionists cannot
last long after the passage of the Coer.

A Cape Elizabeth Man Prime Mover
In the Enterprise.

SAco. April 13.-The Enterprise Colony
which was to start for New Mexico this
month has met with sudder surprising OBJ
struction. The movement has proved base
swindle, concocted and shrewdly managed
by Mr.. Stanton of Cape Elizabeth. Stanton
came here in January. and interested about
GO laboring men in Biddeford and Saco in his
immigration scheme. He claimed to repre-
sent a syndicate consisting Of a dozen or
more capitalists, who would furnish money
to those who took advantage of the offer,
receiving interest on the loan as compensa-
tlon. A colony was formed, headquarters
established in this city, and a president,
secretary and treasurer were chosen. The
Office was nicely fitted up and small sum
OF money was given Stanton to helh him in
arrangements. His proposition was that
each man advance ten dollars before start
ing, but the officers of the organization be-
came suspicious and no further payments
were made to him. Just before the day of
starting word was received here that Stanton
was away in Lynn endeavoring to obtain
situation in shoe factory, later they heard
he was in Portland at work at his trade. The
president OF the colony was sent to Portland
and found Stanton in that city. He claimed
the syndicate had gone back on him and his
only excuse for not notifying the colony was
that he had not the heart to break the news
to them" Legal proceedings are threatened
against him.
